Healing Together: Empowering Jewish or Israeli Students and Navigating Trauma

This online workshop series is being offered by 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ Student Wellness Hub Counsellors to provide Jewish or Israeli students with a safe, supportive environment to explore and process the ongoing impact of intergenerational trauma.

The role of the Student Affairs Liaison for Jewish Students is to answer your questions about 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ resources and listen to your concerns. She will help you identify 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ and community resources that are suited to your particular situation. The Student Affairs Liaison can point you toward Jewish student groups you can connect with or toward educational opportunities, for example if you want to learn more about Jewish Montreal. 

Every January, the Student Affairs Liaison for Jewish Students works to organize an event commemorating International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
